North Galatia

North Galatian Kingdom of the Roi-Assidus, (Galatian: Nord-Galatiei Regnum Roi-Assidi), or simply North Galatia, is a country that was born during the Galatian civil war. The country is bordered by 5 countries, Oxenryd, Kashykia, Kaohportia, Carkoa and South Galatia. The country is ruled in the form of a abolsute monarchy who ruled from the Royal Palace that is located in the country's capital, Malatien or Deniit in Kashyk. Despite the country having a large majority of Kashyk people, Galatian is the language of administration and was forced upon the citizens by the King and the Roi-Assidus, supporters of the King.

History
Contrasting to the south, where most of the fighting in the civil war was taking place, the north was relatively peaceful in comparison as the war against the government had not spilled over into the region. As a result the former royal family of Galatia as well as their followers, the Roi-Assidus, saw this as a perfect time to gain control of the northern region of Galatia. The Royal family sent members of the Roi-Assidus army throughout the northern region of Galatia claiming that they were now in control of the region and that they declared the region to be an independent state known as North Galatian Kingdom of the Roi-Assidus or simply North Galatia. The government of Galatia paid no attention to this as they were pre-occupied in their own war with with the rebels in the South.

War with Kashykia
On Septermber 29th 2014, the region controlled by the Roi-Assidus declared its independence from the rest of Galatia with the former King of Galatia acting as the ruler of the newly independent nation, despite the population being majority Kashyk. The State of Kashykia paid no attention to the declaration of independence as they were pre-occupied with the Civil War that was going on in the south of Galatia and thought that, as long as the Kashyk population in Northern Galatia is treated well, they will not interfere with their affairs.

Despite this, a couple of months after their independence, the North Galatian King became weary of the Kashyk population and feared that they were going to organise a revolution that would ultimately result in his overthrowing just like in Galatia a couple of years prior. To combat his fear, he instituted a nation wide program of Terror whereby he would incite fear into the lives of the Kashyk population by burning their villages and taking prisoners so as keep his power and rule over his territory. Around 10,000 Kashykians died during the King's terror program which didn't go unnoticed by the Kashyk government. On January 5th 2015, Kashykia declared war on the Kingdom of North Galatia so as to protect the Kashyk population that resided within it. The declaration of war from Kashykia was supported by the state of Kaohportia, an ally of Kashykia, as well as South Galatia who had friendly relations with the two nations as they played a role in its independence.

Following the declaration of war from the government of Kaohportia, the countries of Uslye and Foronia quickly decided to declare war on North Galatia to support their long time ally Kashykia. Fighting between the two nations began on January 14th 2015 with Kashyk forces lining themselves along the border between Kashykia and North Galatia in preparation for an attack. Whilst this was happening, the death toll of innocent Kashyks was still rising as the King didn't wish to cease his operation despite the threats from the international community. On January 16th, the Kashyk and Kaohportian military crossed the border into North Galatia and began liberating land that was controlled by the North Galatian regime. They were assisted by aid and troops from Foronia and Uslye as well. Most battles between the two sides were won easily by the Kashyk and Kaohportian forces as their military outstrengthed that of the North Galatian in technology and number of troops. This meant that the two nations were able to push quickly towards the capital from all directions. The King of North Galatia could see that he was losing power rapidly and with nothing left to do he gathered what was left of his army and ordered that the army should murder every Kashyk citizen that they see. As a result of this final move, estimates state that around 170,000 Kashyk people living in Northern Galatia were killed in the space of a week at the hand of the King and his last attempt to regain control. However, thankfully, his attempt to hinder the progress made by Kashyk and Kaohportian forces didn't prevail and the capital city of Malatien or (Denitt) was besieged on January 27th 2015 thus beginning the "Siege of Malatien".

Siege of Malatien
The Siege of Malatien was the final battle between Kashyk/Kaohportian forces and the Roi Assidus. The forces of the two nations had surrounded the city in its entirety thus effectively cutting off all of its roads and means of transport. The militaries of Kashykia and Kaohportia were preparing for the final attack on the city and hopefully the liberation of the region from the hands of King Clau Galat who was responsible for the murder of over 180,000 Kashykians in North Galatia. On February 4th 2015, Kashyk and Kaohportian forces began to attack the northern and southern sides of the city where they were met by a fierce response from the North Galatian military who had all grouped together in the capital to try and defend the King. Despite this, soliders from Kashykia and Kaohportia were able to push through the city and on February 10th, stormed the palace of the King capturing King Clau Galat as well as his wives who were all located in his large banquet hall. The King was sent to Carkoa as the Carkoan authorities had requested that the King be transferred to them as he had amassed a large amount of debt with the Carkoan government.

Result
After the over-throwing of the King, the region of North Galatia was finally return to Kashykia as an autonomous state under the name of the Harjumaa with the name of the capital being changed to Deniit, the old Kashykian name for the city of Malatien. A national day of mourning was put in place for January 15th to comemorate the 180,000 Kashyks who died at the hands of the former King during the war and the day February 27th was set as a national commemorating the victory and the collaboration of Kashykia with Kaohportia as well as Uslye and Foronia.
